"Mentor, I’m not blaming you. I just need you to know—if it’s not you helping me, I’d rather let my body give out completely. That’s why I’m staying.""That’s nonsense!" Suzy couldn’t hold back her temper any longer. "Elliot, why do you always have to be so stubborn? This isn’t about forcing me; it
Suzy was also trying to figure out what Elliot was up to by deliberately sending Allen away. After checking with the gatekeeper, she confirmed that Elliot had left. It wasn’t hard for Suzy to guess his intentions. Most likely, he thought the antidote couldn’t be created, and since she wasn’t wi
“What are you thinking?” Dylan sighed softly. “Even if I wanted to take something, someone would have to bring it to me first! Maybe I was just too worried about you. “I kept telling myself, over and over, that I had to get better so I could protect you. And somehow, I just found the strength. “
Suzy couldn’t shake a sense of unease, as if something terrible was about to happen. She didn’t suspect Dylan, assuming instead that something had happened to Elliot or Diana. “Send more people,” she instructed Allen. “Boss, don’t stress yourself. Have you seen how pale you look? You should ge
When Suzy remained silent, the voice rang out again, taunting her. “Your silence means agreement. Since you’ve agreed, let’s begin! Given how well you know Diana, this game should be easy for you. “After all, last time, I sent someone so convincing that even her own brother, Dylan, didn’t notice t
The woman didn’t respond immediately this time. Suzy felt a flicker of hope—maybe she’d guessed correctly. Or perhaps the woman was just toying with her, drawing out the suspense on purpose. After all, Suzy had no real idea which one to choose. With the clock ticking down, she’d simply gone with
"She said she’d risk her life to protect you! What a wonderful sister-in-law you have, but too bad she ended up with you, a walking disaster!" The woman’s mocking tone cut like a knife. "If it weren’t for you, she’d still be the carefree, beautiful heiress she once was. You’ve turned her life into
Suzy thought she was finally about to see the woman’s face, but just as the figure approached halfway, she abruptly turned her back to her. With the light behind her earlier, Suzy wasn’t able to catch a glimpse of her face. "You’re about to die, Suzy," the woman said, her tone dripping with mock
Elliot woke up at just the right moment to hear everything Allen had just said.With a wounded expression, he looked at Suzy. “Mentor, even if you don’t want to help detoxify me, you didn’t have to go that far…”Suzy felt a headache coming on. “Allen was just talking nonsense…”Before she could fini
If it were him, there was no way he could be this generous. Even if he were dying, he wouldn’t be able to do it! Dylan didn’t want this either, but this was the only way to ensure that Suzy would have someone to take care of her for the rest of her life! Seeing Dylan remain silent, Desmond alre
When Suzy heard that Elliot had been found, she immediately asked, "How’s his condition?" Allen replied, "For now, it seems stable. He’s unconscious, but other than that, his vital signs are normal." Hearing this, Suzy finally let out a breath of relief. "Where are you now? Do you need me to com
Back at Hillside Villa, Dylan saw Suzy carrying Diana on her back. His brows furrowed sharply. “What’s going on? You went to find Elliot, so why are you bringing Diana back instead?” Suzy glanced at him briefly. “Let me get her settled first, then I’ll explain.” She carried Diana to her private
Just as the middle-aged man seemed ready to spill the truth, another massive wave crashed against the ship. Unprepared, he was thrown hard against the glass panel nearby. The impact was severe, and blood immediately spilled from his mouth. Seeing this, Suzy pushed everything else aside and rush
Suzy stared at the monstrous wave closing in on them, and despite her composed exterior, fear gripped her heart. After all, she was human, and humans feel fear, especially when someone else’s life depended on them. With Diana on her back, her tension was overwhelming. Her palms, clenched around
Just when Suzy thought she could make a clean escape, a massive wave crashed against the ship, causing the enormous vessel to rock violently.Carrying Diana on her back, Suzy nearly lost her footing.The group of fighting men fared worse, with several of them tumbling to the deck. As they scrambled
Hearing Suzy’s words, the group of men burst into laughter. Their leader stepped forward, sneering. "You think you can kill our boss and still walk out of here alive?" "If you want my life, you’ll have to prove you’re capable of taking it," Suzy shot back. Wasting no time, she sent a few silver ne
